Creating a Branch Delta

To create a branch from delta 1.3 for program.c, you would use the sccs edit subcommand shown in the following figure:

$ sccs edit -r 1.3 -b program.c

When you check in your edited version, the branch delta contains SID 1.3.1.1. Subsequent deltas made from this branch are numbered 1.3.1.2, and so on.
